WORK IN AFRICA.
Rev. ME-. Mellin,s Description q
that Continent.

Rev. William Mellin, who recently
returned from Africa, lectured on his
work there for twenty-four years at the
First Congregational church last night.
In order to illustrate his remarks and to
take his hearers over that continent he
had large map hung over the organ
above the pulpit and st each side were
life-sized paintings Of Africans, one in
his native costume and the other dressed
in civilized attire. He prefaced his re.
marks by saying that the Americans
had not done os much for the natives of
Africa as they ought considering the
benefit the people Of that country have
been to this nation in earlier times. He
enumerated the work already accom-.
plished by the missionaries and told
what he thought would be done
in the near future. In
regard to the travellers who
have visited the interior of Africa, he
pointed out the routes taken by them
and showed the vast amount of country
already opened up by their efforts.
After finishing with the description Of
the country, Mr.. Mellin pointed to 0
picture OF native African in, costume
and said the people were not such grea
savsges as had been supposed. Mis-
sionaries could 60 among them withou
fear, for they were Of quiet and kindly
disposition. They lived in round gras
huts ten teet high, into which they
crawl through low entrance. He has
frequently crawled into the huts
with the natives, and had beer
treated we'll while In that country. HI
never had to hide his money in his boot
to keep it from being stolen, as he wa
forced to do in this country. Ther
they never had to lock their doors AM
windows, but left them open for tn
free entrance OF air. He had found
very unpleasant to get into civilization
and hear SO much talk about the necef
sity of locking the doors. Livingston
had left wagon seven years, and re

For about month K. BellmaA, a
tailor residing on Shaw street. has been
brooding over business troubles, and yes
terday morning bis mind gave way and
be became quite violent. Fearing seri-
GUS trouble, word was sent to the police,
and Captain Tyler and Officer Dalton
went to relieve the family of his pres
ence. They found him crying and going
on at an alarming rate, bemoaning his
fate. His hallucination made him see
poverty and ruin ahead, and bis main
idea was that he ought to kill his mother
and sister so that he would not have to
support them. He was taken to the
County Jail by the officers and will be
examined to-day.

THE VETO.

The dependent pension bill, vetoed by
President Cleveland, was not urged by
meritorious soldiers, but by interested
raiders upon the treasury. There was no
popular demand for such legislation,
though the demagogues in congress were
made to think so. The country had done
all for the soldier that the high minded
veteran could ask. 1t paid bouuties to
three years men and in 1866 gave a fur
Their gratuity of 800 upon this score.
Prior to the presentation of the arrears of
pension bill it had made provision so gen.
erous that it already had the largest pen
sion roll ever recorded in the annals OF
civilization, aud it is fair to presume that
every deserving veteran had secured his
place uppn these rolls within the fifteen
year that haG elapsed from the close Of
the war to the passage of the arrears of
pension act. Yet hundreds of millions
have been paid out under that law, and
as seen by the adoption of the dependent
pension bill, the cry is for more. 1t took
considerable moral courage on the part Of
the president to veto this measure, but he
was equal to the occasion. The future
will prove that the force behind the claim
agents who pushed the bill through con-
gress are but men in buckram.

GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE employed in the
different works IL about ms follows;
The air brake company employs about
1900, the Union Switch company $50
men, the machine company $50 and the cleo
trio company 300. The number employed by
the natural gas company varies from about
400 in winter to 1000 in summer or the pipe
laying season.
Many people have an idea that Mr.. West
inghouse struggled from poverty to his pres
ent millions. This was not the case. He is
the son of n Schenectady, N. Y, manufact-
urer OF agricultural implements. He
graduated from Cornell in 1861. He enlisted
in the civil war first n engineer on the wnr
ship Mustwetah and nfterward MS a member
OF II New York cavalry regiment. His ex
perience in repairing railroad wrecks after
Confederate raiders suggested to him II device
for replacing derailcd cars. This was the
beginning Of his career as an inventor. He
settled in Pittsburg and has since lived there.
Dir. Westinghouse home is situated just
outside the P%ittsburg city limits. 1t is mis-
named solitude" for Mrs Westinghouse is a
most charming hostess and their residence is

JUST now the great problem in the for
eign news is whether there will be peace
in Europe; whether the old Continent,
with about seven million men actually
under arms, and at least seven million
more subject to call as militia or reserves
-or as soldiers who having passed a GER
tain time with the colors are yet part of
the army, but are at home-can totter on
peaceably or must tight, merely because
there is so much in1ammable material
around. There is au immense amount of
fighting talk going on. but it is worth
noticing that it all comes from persons
with no responsibility. Nobody whose
word counts has yet said there would be
war. but, on the contrary, they are very
careful to hold their tongues. Not a word
from Boulanger, not a word for nearly a
month from Bismarck, not a word from
the car. But meantime the insncicrs
are organizing all sorts Of games on the
exchanges, and there is half a panic every
day. Perhaps when the elections are
over in Germany things will be quieter,
but that event is the crisis. We eau see
when it occur what will follow.

now He Has Been Rewarded for His In
%genuity.
The Westinghouse air brake has carried
the name of its inventor to every land in
which is found the iron rail, even the cars of
the single railroad in Japan use this brake,
Mr.. Westinghouse has given his attention to
other mechanical appliances until n list OF
his inventions covered by patents now NUM-
Der 1000. The subject to which he has
given his latest attention is the utilization Of
natural gas, and in this he has so well sue
ceeded that gas is about the only fuel burned
in pittsburg.
1t is only fifteen years since Mr.. Westing-
house began the manufacture Of his own in
ventions; today his factories are located on
two continents, giving employment to be
tween 5000 and 1000 men. About 1872 the
Westinghouse air brake works were erected
at Pittsburg. Two years later brnncl works
We're established in England, and since then
works have been built at Paris and in Ger
many.
After the brake manufactures were or
gained so the whole railway world could be
supplied with his invention, Mr.. Westing-
house turned his attention to other fields. The
Union Switch and Signal company next came

He afterwards made inuny speeches in
various states in support of Mr.. Lincoln.
In 1861 the president appointed hin
secretary OF tho territory of Nebraska and
at times he became the acting governor. He
was appointed governor OF Wyoming terri
tory in 1913, but declined the Office. He has
been engaged in the manufacture of hydrau-
lie cement at Beatrice, Ncb., and has always
taken n lively interest in the internal inn
provements OF his adopted state. He had q
large fortune, but being Of n speculative turn
he dipped into Wall street on II pointer given
him by Jay Gould. As one of his friends
puts it: "Gould told him when to 20 in, but
neglected to tell him when to drop out Of
Wall street" The result was he lost heavily.
